About this user’s guide
For ease of reference, the “Getting to know your
phone” chapter gives a quick overview of the main
functions of the phone, shortcuts and general
information.
More information and downloads are available at

Available services
Some services and functions described in this user’s
guide are network- or subscription-dependent.
Because of this, all menus may not be available in
your phone.
This symbol indicates that a service or
function is network or subscription
dependent.
Please consult your network operator for
more information about your subscription.
The SIM card

chip that keeps track of your phone number, the
services included in your subscription, and your
phonebook information, among other things.
Tip: Check if your information is saved to the SIM
card before you remove it from another phone. For
example, phonebook entries may be saved in the
phone memory.
Assembly

• Insert the SIM card.
